Luxuriant Hair

Can only be preserved by keeping the
scalp clean, cool, and free from dan
drutf, and the body in healthful
condition. The great popularity of
Ayers Hair Nigor is due to the fact
that it cleanses the scalp, promotes the
growth Of the hair, prevents 1t from
falling out, and gives it that soft and
silky gloss so essential 10 perfect beauty.
Frederick Hardy, of Roxbury, Mass,
agentleman fifty years Of age, was fast
losing his hair, and what remained was
growing gray. After trying yarions

injured by Alien Labor.
THE COMPLAINT OF THE DETROIT wORKINGMEN AND
ITS CAUSES
A dispatch from Detroit, Mich, SAYS: There are
considerable numbers OF mechanics finding daily
employment in Detroit who live in Windsor, Onta-
rio, directly across the river which forms the
boundary line Of the two countries. They are
British subjects, and propose to remain So Taxa
tion Is far less in a small town like Windsor than
In large city like Detroit, and building lots are
necessarily much cheaper, while the same general
fact Is true OF building materials and most manu-
ractured goods. OF late there has been a growing
disposition on the part OF the labor organizations
of Detroit to devise some means to keep out the
competition Of this alien labor in the Industrial
trades Of Detroit and public meeting was held
Thursday night to advance a movement that
should result in its exclusion If possible. To this
meeting Judge Chipman, the new member Of Con-
gresS for the Detroit district, sent letter. which
contains some paragraphs OF much more than
temporary significance, and capable of far
wider than local application. He says:
1--WE have long passed the stage of growth when
labor was scarce. Workingmen OF all capacities
are abundant in numbers. All that we do for
OF men, women and children who are within our
gates. All competition in the industries by which
they live by imported labor is artificial, un-
natural, unpatriotic cheapening of their flesh and
children after us. We must not by prodigally
giving away our substance render our own lives
harder and beQueath pauper class to pOstertty.
II we do this we will be the greatest criminals OF
any age. for we will have Squandered all OF
riches, OF opportunity, of prosperity and liberty.
Undoubtedly the General Government, with power
troll foreign relations may determine who (not
being citlZens) shall and who shall not reside in
the country and how far they may embark in any
branch OF business. The grand question is, What
donate to strangers the opportunities which are
only Sumctent for our own peOple?"

Until the recent deliverance from the scourIye OF

peace with the Apaches since about ls4S. A GU
rous story Is told by Domingo Duran, OF Bacnachi,

tribe lived at peace with the Mexicans. Their pas
sion was horSe-racing. one sunday priest by
the name OF Escalente and Mexican got up u
race and the priest selected as his rider an Apache
chief. The priest lost the race ana accused the
Indian OF doing his best. In his rage he struck
the chief I'm the face with a loaded qulrt ana
Knocked out one OF his eyes. The other Indians
took IL very well and did appear 10 feel resent
ful but on sunday few weeks afterward the
priest started FOR Fronteras TO hold service on
the road the Apaches overlook HIM and his COIN
panions and cut out the priest eyes aud tied hun
TO q tree After sitting around and enjoying the
sufrerngs or the priest until their vengeance was
satisfied they killed him and tortured his COM
panions From this time the Apaches were at
war with Mexico until the recent capture 10y the
United states troops. The place where the priest
ard his companions were tortured and where they
were burned Is still pointed out.

The regatta, according to the Sun, cannot be
said to demonstrate anything except that the

Of 5th avenue and Wood street, the upper floors OF
which were occupied by the main ONCE OF the
Western Union Telegraph Co. as an operating de-
partment and battery-room, was partially de-
StrOyed by fire at O'clock this morning. The fire
started in the operating room, and is supposed to
have been caused By the crossing OF wires in the
rear OF the switchboard. The flames spread rap
idly, and great difficulty was experienced by the
nrenen in getting their ladders in positioa on
count OF the network OF wires After gallant
fight however, the flames were subdued, but not
before the three upper stories had been Quilted
completely, and communication by the Western
Union Telegraph CO. with the outside world en-
tlrely cut on. All OF their fine machinery Was
destroyed and every wire was Frustrated. Tem-
porary headquarters have been established at the
Mutual Union once, at the corner OF Wood and
Diamond Streets but the facilities for handling
business are very poor. Communication by tele-
phone has also been suspended, and all kinds OF
business are In consequence greatly retarded. The

ing was one OF the most imposing In the city. II
